Overview

A real classic treat in this week’s episode – a Ferrari Dino 246 once owned by rock legend Keith Richards, who, it must be said, looked after his Ferrari a lot better than he did himself. Quentin takes this silver missile round the streets of Monaco where you need something this special to stand out from the crowd. Chris Routledge sifts through the usual piles of fence panels, paint pots, cardboard boxes and bin-bags to get closer to the truth about a forgotten British mainstay, the Morris 8, while Alex co-drives a road rally on some of the UK’s best stretches, missing all the scenery in the process. Bruno whips the cover off a serious contender for fastest classic lap of the series. As for Jodie, well… let’s just say she’s following in one of her predecessor’s footsteps – a successful fashion model and racing driver from the late 1920s and 1930s – in a Bugatti Type 35C, one of the most charismatic racing cars ever built.
